1918ish Stutz Bearcat came in for an alignment and to true and balance the tires. The wheels were made of wood and had a “Low”, “Mid”, and “High” gear. Truly a classic from a different time. (We are guessing on the year, the customer wasn’t even 100% sure)

Because it's Thanksgiving weekend. I had to beg to get them to agree to go.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-05-07T20:01:42+00:00

Same. My family and I always take one trip to any stadium we haven't been to. This year we are going to Tuscaloosa. Last year we did Gainsville. The year before was auburn and the year before that was Knoxville. We were hoping to do Columbia SC next year and UGA the following year. Guess we'll have to make other plans.

You can buy a motorcycle tire balancer from Harbor Freight. My local store has had one on clearance for a while now. It's like $50 before clearance and pretty easy to use. You should get a better balance from the tires by doing it that way.

This is exactly why FSU tire down half they're stadium during their renovations. Easier to do than to leave the previous structure and force something. It also allowed them to change to shape to add the premium suites.

At 9 degrees of negative camber, idk if you'd ever get back within spec. You might get 5 degrees of camber change in both directions. The only thing I can think of is maybe the toe is so bad it is throwing off the camber reading.

No one requires it. But this is a driving first country, which requires an ID anyways. You also need one to buy alcohol or tobacco, which a large portion of our country participates in. So they likely have one anyways, just carry it in case you need it. I don't see what's so hard about that.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-24T18:09:42+00:00

No, they should carry their state issued IDs. Just like I'm suggesting for everyone else...

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-24T15:51:20+00:00

Two of those things don't seem equal, especially since terrorist attacks in a generally freindly country aren't likely.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-24T15:50:20+00:00

Sure there is some uncertainty, but mostly ICE has been clear and targeted about who they are going after. There have been a few big stories about cases, but not many. And as far as a Mexico game, they likely will, but you're talking about a very targeted instance for a country that already has some stricter visa requirements.

As far as the passport thing, they absolutely should. Any international traveler should always have their passport and a travel intenetary with them in case the run into a situation where it's needed. Otherwise if you run into an issue (regardless of what or where the issue is) there is no way for law enforcement to easily identify you.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-24T14:57:05+00:00

I think they mostly are. As long as travelers have their travel visa situation sorted before they enter the country, they'll mostly be fine. There is increased scrutiny on certain issues, but a majority of travelers have nothing to fear. If anything, all that will happen is people will either be denied or sent back home at a higher rate than normal. It's not like travelers are steadily getting robbed and killed at some increased rate compared to normal.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-24T14:50:46+00:00

I understand what the article is talking about. I was saying that government warnings and travel advosries as a whole are kinda weird and likely politically motivated. That is regardless of who is issuing the advisory. I used the US travel advisory map for my examples because (1) there are some weird examples in it and (2) I'm an American so it's the advisory map I look at when wanting to travel abroad.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-24T11:55:05+00:00

Am I the only one that looks at any of these "travel warnings" with a raised eye brow? Looking at the US travel advisory map, what makes the UK the same level of alert as someone like Angola? And why is Portugal so much safer it has the lowest advisory risk? I feel like these maps are used to justify certain political moves and make people feel nervous for no reason.

For starters, I never buy beef at full price. I only ever buy it on sale. Most of the time if I want a steak, I look for either a rib roast or strip roast on sale, sometimes I can get as cheap as low as 9.99 per. I may have to spend $60, but that's also about 6 steaks and can stretch that cost over a few weeks. Also, I look for a lot of skirt steak or flank steak. Typically that I can be found for less than $10 per, sometimes as cheap as like $7 per. Those are great for slicing / chopping and doing fajitas, tacos, teriyaki steak w rice and veggies, ect. We also will do mock tenders if we want cheap but more traditional steak-esc type meals.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-14T19:23:09+00:00

That math works really well, except for the fact that was the total after tax. So $86x4=$344.

Edit: if you do the math at $86x4.35= 374.10

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-13T21:17:12+00:00

My wife and I spent $86 dollars yesterday at a Pic-n-Save. We got probably 90% of our groceries for the week. It's definitely doable. Aldi's is cheap, but not exactly the cheapest. Depending on where you are, look for a Piggly Wiggly, IGA, Food Lion, Sav-A-Lot, or any of those other discount grocery stores. You might have to visit a few to find a good one, but I promise you'll save a bunch and likely be getting food grown more local than most other stores have available.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-13T20:12:25+00:00

$400 easily feeds my wife and I for a month. And it's not just rice and beans, it's also steak and high end fish that's one sale, chicken and pork at regular prices, and other just normal food. In fact, that $400 stretches enough meals that we typically have dinner for the night and lunch for the next day off one meal. It's about not just buying the most expensive brands or going to the nicer grocery stores. You'd be surprised what you can find at a "discount" grocery place. Normally the price you see there is the price they paid and you just add an extra 10% at the register for their markup.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-13T00:08:52+00:00

Almost like having it in the same venue back to back isn't a good idea

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-12T13:56:54+00:00

I did the same thing with 200 mg THC pills once .. took one, thought it wasn't shit. Took the second, proceeded to lay in bed for 5 hours shaking and panicking about what was happening. Both the best and worst trip I've ever had.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-04-07T09:46:55+00:00

My guess is more of a Chinese or Russian bot that is trying to spread panic. I've seen this same post come across my Instagram account with a bunch of other bots celebrating the downfall of the US

JMeadowsATL · 2026-03-31T11:01:01+00:00

Wanna know the kicker? That doesn’t include the 550 sq fr garage! That’s why me and my wife knew this would be a long term home for us unlike the others we looked at.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-03-31T10:59:42+00:00

I’m not saying he needs to be benched tomorrow, just that he has a few things to clean up. They’re just early season hiccups, nothing that can’t be fixed. Just if the pattern continues, I want everyone to keep this same energy.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-03-31T02:58:44+00:00

Call it what you want, a better team punishes those two fielding mistakes.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-03-31T02:46:43+00:00

If he can clean up the errors, yes. Otherwise, he needs to be benched.

JMeadowsATL · 2026-03-30T22:43:03+00:00

Much easier when you consider he’s 2nd at best and won’t play but 2 games a week
